Those looking for adventure all year round may find Arksen's new 43.7-foot (13.3-meter) yacht the ideal water toy. The British shipyard designed the Arksen 45 as a dayboat, weekend adventure boat, chase boat or accessory boat, giving shipowners the possibility of having multiple options in one package.
The ship is part of Arksen's new range of expedition boats, created for those with a truly adventurous spirit. Its modular design allows it to be adapted to suit the taste of the owner. So, even for diving, boating, kayaking, biking or fishing, rksen offers the ideal platform to meet the needs of adventurers. In addition, it can also be used as an accessory to a chase boat or a large yacht.
In terms of its size, many amenities are available on board. The 43.7-foot (13.3 m) yacht can accommodate four guests and features a room with a full-height shower. It is also equipped with an enclosed cab and a small dining room next to a fully equipped kitchen.
Other features include hot and cold air conditioning, as well as dual or triple outboard and inboard unit options. The Arksen 45 operates in all weather conditions and offers longer sea journeys.
In terms of performance, this new ship type is not disappointing. It can sail 575 miles (926 km) on water. Depending on the powertrain chosen, it can reach an impressive speed of more than 50 knots (57.5 mph/93 km).
Dominic Byrne, Arksen's director of sales and marketing, said they "wanted to create a new type of boat, one that could constantly adapt to the needs of ship owners and their families." A comfortable, safe, and versatile product that can be used all year round, it can be used as a day boat, a weekend adventure boat, a chase boat or an accessory boat. We wanted a ship that could hold all these things, so we developed the Arksen 45. ”
The shipyard will launch the Arksen 45 later this year. More details are expected once the new boat is launched.
